Keep your OpenAPI descriptions spot-on with minimal effort
Validate a multi-file definition without having to bundle it
Behemoth YAML gets old pretty quick. An unbundled definition is far easier to edit and check for duplicates. Our Redocly CLI lets you quickly validate and lint a multi-file definition before bundling it into one file for distribution.

Built-in development server for easy previewing
Preview your entire reference docs locally without having to bundle your definition, whether you’re using Redocly or our open-source version Redoc.
Craft your API design flow with rules and decorators
A.K.A. Style guides: versatile, easy to customize JavaScript modules.
Rule-based linting
Teach Redocly’s CLI to detect issues the way your process requires. Pick from a plethora of built-in rules, or write your own with simple JavaScript functions referenced in the Redocly configuration file.
Define parallel API definitions with decorators
Decorators are a Redocly-exclusive customization layer you can use to effectively build different versions of the same definition. They modify content during the bundle process, so you can e.g. add code samples, remove schema or change path structure after validation is complete.
